This online study day was specifically designed to enable nurses and clinicians working within women’s oncology pathways to unpick the confusing web of clinically induced menopause symptoms, offer guidance on how you can improve outcomes for patients and share effective treatment measures. The proven methods of this course enabled the participants to have effective conversations and support their patients before, during and after treatment.
Important steps to improve the lives of your patients living with induced menopause
Clinically induced menopause can be distressing and confusing for patients; it is so important that you are equipped with the knowledge and skills to manage their symptoms before, during and after treatment, whilst also providing thoughtful guidance.
